Tourism village In Giethoorn Netherlands ~ Giethoorn is a
tourist village in the Netherlands, dubbed the "Venice of the North". Nicknamed as such because there are no motorized land vehicles that can be passing there, and transport can only be carried out on the water, the canal which branched into the river - a
small river.
The water that surrounds and bathes the village was started from the flood of St Elizabeth in 1170, and the village itself was founded and developed back in 1230 when the fugitive Mediterranean came to settle here. The fugitives found a lot of wild goat horns might have been killed by floods, and that's where the name came from the village. This village was originally called '
Geytenhorn' which means 'goat's horn', eventually became Giethoorn after many years.
